Books by Sri Chinmoy

A collection of inspirational stories, poems and aphorisms captures the timeless wisdom of the East in the simple language of the spiritual master Sri Chinmoy. Many stories come from ancient India; others portray episodes from the lives of great spiritual figures.

Originally published over 25 years ago, this book has now been released in a new beautiful revised edition, with artwork featuring  Sri Chinmoy's “soul-birds” evoking the immortal soul flying eternally in the sky of Infinity.

When we listen to soulful music, or when we ourselves play soulful music, immediately our inner existence climbs up high, higher, highest. It climbs up and enters into something beyond. This Beyond is constantly trying to help us, guide us, mould us and shape us into our true transcendental image, our true divinity. When we hear soulful music, or when we play a soulful piece of music, we feel a kind of inner thrill in our entire existence, from the soles of our feet to the crown of our head. A river is flowing through us, a river of consciousness, and this consciousness is all the time illumined.

Sri Chinmoy

Sri Chinmoy was a prolific composer of spiritual music. Writing from his own experiences and realisations, he explores the spiritual dimensions of music and its power to awaken the truth-seeker to their inner divine Consciousness. There is also an in-depth section on mantra and japa, which have been used in India for spiritual growth and fulfilment for thousands of years.
